Character- Mr. Bill Hutchinson.
Description- The husband of the unlucky winner of the lottery.

Description- The unlucky victim or 'winner' of the lottery.
Additional details- She was happy to be involved in the annual ritual and wouldn't miss it. But when the lot fell on her family, she finds fault in it.
Explanation:
Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" revolves around the annual ritual of a village where a 'winner' gets chosen to be 'stoned to death' as a sacrificial lamb. The story delves into the theme of why it is dangerous to blindly follow the rituals or traditions established.
The characters Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson are the main protagonist of the story around which the story develops and revolves around. Bill Hutchinson is the husband of the unlucky victim Tessie Hutchinson. While she seems supportive of the ritual, she changed her stance by accusing the process of being "unfair" once the lot fell on her family. Bill, on the other hand, is fully accepting of the result, even forcing the paper off of Tessie's hand and also telling her to "shut up" when she accuses the "unfair' process.
how do i write a compare and contrast essay about two stories ??
If it's a standard 5 paragraph essay then you could write two paragraphs about the similarities. Think about an event or the characteristics of the people of the stories that are similar and how they relate to one another.

Explanation:
Sugar plantations were Hell because of the endless labor they demanded from slaves. They were Hell because of the many dangers and the injuries that they caused. They were Hell because the slaves who labored without end got nothing for their work—except to live another day, to work more. But none of these miseries was the true reason the plantations were so evil. The plantations were Hell because the masters and overseers were treated as gods—which turned them into devils. The English historian Lord Acton famously said, “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” That is a perfect description of sugar Hell. Men with absolute power over their slaves acted like creatures we would otherwise meet only in nightmares. Their cruelty had no limit—they preferred to kill their slaves rather than fear them. As Equiano explained, the island of Montserrat “requires 20,000 new Negroes annually, to fill

Now, engage in a 10-minute freewriting exercise. Brainstorm and write about anything that comes to mind when thinking about why this character is relatable to readers. Consider these questions while brainstorming: Hunger Games
Answer:
Hunger Games is relatable to readers because...
Explanation:
The Hunger Games invite readers to think about family, friendship, love, community, and society as a whole. Set in a dystopian society where the main character sacrifices herself for the good of her family. She allows the readers to put themselves in her place and what they would do to help their family-offer up their own life to save her sisters life. It is a story of life and death, ups and downs, a love story of sorts but mainly sacrifice. The community is set in a time when they have sacrificed so much and are barely able to survive but once a year they sacrifice one of their own. The games introduce us to other sectors, this shows us class structure, similar to society now. Some rich and some poor. We see just what people are willing to do to live. We see how corrupt the system behind the game is by adding in and changing up the game to fit their needs. All of the things in the Hunger Games are relatable to todays society and some of the things people of different race, class and ethnicities experience. People love a good story about overcoming things. This is one of those stories. We want to go see the good girl win. Hunger Games evolves with each book and we see the main character evolve as well. But each book keeps us coming back for more- we want to know what happened where we left off. We recognize Katness's struggle and we want her to beat they system and the "man". It gives people a possible glimpse into our future as a society on Earth if we dont focus on the issues we have at hand.

What does Roland do to all the other kids in the holding tank? Why?
Answer:
Roland Taggart was a boy whom Connor, Risa, Mai, and Hayden met in Sonia's shop basement. He is troubled, like Connor but obviously a bit more, especially without someone like Risa to control his temper. Roland was unwound, and his right forearm was transplanted onto Connor.
Explanation:
In chapters 22-23 of the story, "Unwind", we learn of Roland who was stuck in a Holding tank with other kids. While in the holding tank, Roland overtly bullies the other kids. He also avoids them.
Roland was a clever bully. This can be said of him because after bullying the kids, he pretends as though he were a nice person. Risa notices his cunning ways and tries to report his act of bullying but the older people are unable to see this because Roland covers his tracks after the act.Learn more here:

A yearbook page for Cesar Chavez states "Remember
when you fought for better working conditions for
farm workers?" What image would best illustrate this?
an image of Cesar Chavez farming with his family
an image of Cesar Chavez leading a peaceful
march
O an image of Cesar Chavez working on a farm as a

march
Explanation:
Cesar Chavez was a civil rights activist and a leader of farm workers fighting for better working conditions. He is most famous for his work in the 60s and 70s when he organized strikes and boycotts against working conditions on farms and plantations.
He used direct, but non-violent means of fight, fighting only with peaceful protests, marches and boycotts until demands were granted.

Also, that is the only option that shows any mean of fight for better working conditions.

Answer:
A. His ideas about how man is upright to stay put
Explanation:
The aspect of Anse’s narration from "As I Lay Dying" that most clearly makes him an unreliable narrator is: "His ideas about howbman is upright to stay put".
In his statement, he believes that only things which are made sideways can travel. Then human beings that are made upright like trees should stay put where they are. This makes him an unreliable narrator. As a result of Cash's idea to go into carpentry and Darl's to move off to the farm, Anse blames the road. Because their house is on the road does not clearly make him an unreliable narrator.

"She even loved playing softball; she had a wickedly fast windmill pitch, having played throughout college and graduate school and on the law firm's recreational team."
"She was American, just as much as she was Korean, and even though her mother wouldn't have wanted her to do it, starting the food truck was Ji-Suk's way of honoring her mother and showing that she valued what her mother had taught her."
"...she'd made Ji-Suk take Korean lessons every Saturday morning followed by violin lessons in the afternoon—and cooked kimchi and other Korean delicacies with her at least once a week..."
Answer:Part A : The statement that best states a central idea in the text about children of immigrants is "They are pulled between the traditions of their parents' culture and the changes required by a new culture."
Part B : The detail from the story that supports the answer in Part A is " Ji-Suk wonders about her son's preference for friends rather than activities."

Answer:
Consisting of only one color
Explanation:
Mono meaning one plus chrom meaning color means something is only one color.
Have a good day! :D
Based on the list of word roots, Consisting of only one color is the meaning of the word monochromatic.
What are word roots?A root word is a fundamental word that conjunctions are added to create new words. The root word is also a separate word. A word's core, which cannot be broken down into further meanings, is known as its root. A stem is a morphologically simple element in grammar that may be left unmodified or where a suffix or a surname can be attached.
Chron = "time"
chrom = "color"
meta = "change
meter = "measure"
mono = "one"
From this, in can say that monochromatic means a place where a single color is being used. The hues, tones, and tinting of a single main color are used to create monochromatic color combinations. This can be derived from the words that are present.
